Right Off The Highway! Historic and Beautiful!

weather permitting and as long as there's not too much snow in the winter which is pretty unlikely because they do try to keep it cleared however if a snowstorm comes through it could be a day or two before somebody could get to it. this is an Old Stage Stop where they would leave feed up on top of the rocks and other supplies to keep them away from animals in Indians the location I have shared is the location of the old hotel. look to your right as you pull in and you can't miss the remains. also be careful there are a couple very deep Water Wells that at times can surprise you if they are not covered. should be covered by a old car hood which should remain there. please be respectful. one other well down by the creek. the hotel was built years after buy a couple and their child. Indians killed the wife and child in an attack. up the roadways not very far at all you will find a small road to the right with just a turnout. you will find two grave markers as well. You will have noticed a road to the west up into the Rocks. this is not an RV road but a good road to walk or take a horse, motorcycle, or ATV up. even a pickup should do fine part of the way up but as soon as you see it veer to the right beware! if that corner incline is wet it is clay and you will sink to your eyeballs! a few hundred more yards and you are in the center of the rocks. look closely and you will find the remains of a rock corral where they kept their horses. this spot is disputed with some other local people who live in the area. some confuse it with the boulder down by the creek but my metal detector tells me otherwise and so does the Corral. also you will noticed a marshy area that you passed. this was the well where they got their water. they had a house somewhere near. also if you are a real explorer and historian buff like myself you will find just about four or five hundred more yards to the South a pile of rocks with a single fence post standing in the center of it. I believe this is a grave site. only wish I knew more..
